Cleveland Browns
The reputation of this brand is definitely not helped by the Family Guy character of the same name, and it is no surprise that they are the laughing stock of America as they finished 1-15 last year. But like the 49ers, this is what makes rebuilding them fun. It is such a daunting task that only the extremely capable Managers will be able to bring this team back from the depths and take it to the top.
They have draft capital which is really good for players looking to personalize their teams with their favorite players. Players like Myles Garret and David Njoku are also very well rounded and can be a good base for you to build upon. How amazing would taking this team to the Super Bowl be?
- Free Agent Acquisitions: G Joel Bitonio, QB Brock Osweiler, WR Kenny Britt, OL J.C. Tretter and OL Kevin Zeitler
- 2017 Draft Class: DE Myles Garrett, S/LB Jabrill Peppers, TE David Njoku, QB DeShone Kizer, DT Larry Ogunjobi, CB Howard Wilson, OT Roderick Johnson, DT Caleb Brantley, PK Zane Gonzalez and RB Matthew Dayes
San Fransisco 49ers
Kyle Shanahan as the new head coach and John Lynch as the general manager makes this team quite interesting. They had a ridiculously good draft this year too with the likes of Solomon Thomas and Reuben Foster. Deforest Buckner shows a lot of promise and could become an elite talent which stays cheap for a few years. They finished 2-14 last year and do not have a good QB, Ol or WR but that is what makes this team fun to rebuild with. It is difficult.
- Free Agent Acquisitions: QB Brian Hoyer, WR Pierre Garçon, LB Malcolm Smith, RB Tim Hightower and QB Matt Barkley
- 2017 Draft Class: DL Solomon Thomas, LB Reuben Foster, CB Ahkello Witherspoon, QB C.J. Beathard, RB Joe Williams, TE George Kittle, WR Trent Taylor, DT D.J. Jones, DE Pita Taumoepenu and S Adrian Colbert
Los Angeles Rams
They did not finish well last season but they have exciting additions into their lineup this season which is why they are perfect for rebuilding. Their roster boasts strong players like Aaron Donald, Jared Goff and Todd Gurley, which are strong contenders for being an elite player. Since you already have such a massive core of young players to play with, rebuilding should be a very fun experience.
- Free Agent Acquisitions: DB Nickell Robey-Coleman, DB Kayvon Webster, C John Sullivan
- 2017 Draft Class: TE Gerald Everett, WR Cooper Kupp, S Josh Johnson, WR Josh Reynolds, OLB Samson Ebukam, DT Tanzel Smart, FB Sam Rogers and OLB Ejuan Price
Los Angeles Chargers
They finished 5-11 in the tougher divisions so they already have a fairly good base for you to build upon. They had a lot of injuries and problems with the offensive line which has been fixed with additions like Lamp, Feeny, and Okung. Massive potential can be seen in Joey Bosa along with Jason Verret and Casey Hayward which are cornerstone pieces that will make rebuilding this team not only faster but also more enjoyable, especially for players who are not that patient.
- Free Agent Acquisitions: OT Russel Okung, NT Damion Square and WR Geremy Davis
- 2017 Draft Class: WR Mike Williams, OG Forrest Lamp, OG Dan Feeny, S Rayshawn Jenkins, S Desmond King, OT Sam Tevi, DE Issac Rochell
Chicago Bears
Even though they finished 3-13 last year, they had the second best RB rookie with 1600 all-purpose yards and seven touchdowns. Leonard Floyd is also a promising OLB and they have Mitchell Trubisky. The Chicago Bears have a good squad depth and they have a perfect mix of veterans and rookies for you to start rebuilding the franchise with. Mitchell Trubisky can be the backbone of the squad and will be quite cheap for a few years as you rebuild the franchise from the ground up.
- Free Agent Acquisitions: CB Prince Amukumara, QB Mike Glennon, WR Kendall Wright and CB Marcus Cooper
- 2017 Draft Class: QB Mitchell Trubisky, TE Adam Shaheen, S Eddie Jackson, RB Tarik Cohen and OG Jordan Cohen
